Safer Insecticidal Soap Concentrate is a valuable tool in the fight against common garden pests. This eco-friendly insecticidal soap provides gardeners with an effective way to control aphids, mites, whiteflies, and other soft-bodied insects that harm plants.
Safer Insecticidal Soap is a reliable solution for gardeners facing pest problems, including the notorious Japanese beetles. When these beetles lay eggs, they can cause a lot of damage to plants, but Safer Insecticidal Soap provides a safe and effective solution. Safer insecticidal soap promotes biological control by sparing beneficial insects while targeting pests.
Unlike strong chemical pesticides, Safer Insecticidal Soap won't harm helpful insects like parasitic wasps and green lacewings, crucial for controlling pests in the garden. This soap offers a balanced approach to pest management by targeting soft-bodied insects like aphids, mites, and whiteflies while leaving beneficial insects unharmed. With Safer Insecticidal Soap, gardeners can tackle pest issues while promoting a healthy and thriving garden ecosystem.
Scale insects, which can devastate plants by sucking their sap and weakening their structure, are effectively controlled with this eco-friendly soap. Additionally, Safer Insecticidal Soap is gentle on beneficial insects like lacewing larvae, which prey on pest larvae such as beetle larvae. This soap ensures that natural predators can thrive while still addressing pest infestations.
For more stubborn pests like caterpillars, Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is a key ingredient in some formulations of Safer Insecticidal Soap, targeting the larvae before they can cause extensive damage. By disrupting pest larvae feeding on food sources, this soap helps maintain a healthy balance in the garden ecosystem, supported by natural predators like tachinid flies.

The instructions for use are not on the bottle. When I peal the area where the instructions are supposed to be theres nothing underneath.
You can find the product label on the product page. https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0061/1391/9089/files/pmb600-b.pdf?v=4466389311329923365
I havent used this product yet, but I'm anxious to try it. It had been sitting in my father's storage for at least a year. As I went to peel back direction lable, its stuck to the bottle and just rips so there is nothing I can read on how to use it, because the instructions and lable are stuck together😯😤🤔..frustrated.!-But I'll gladly give you a better review once I figure out how to use it!
How about putting the instructions on the bottle.
John, there is a flap on the back that you have to peel back to see the instructions.
From the Internet: "For best results, use freshly mixed solution. Mix one part concentrate with 50 parts water, or 2.5 fl. oz per gallon unless otherwise noted. Use soft water whenever possible. NOTE: Do not use on new transplants, newly rooted cuttings or plants stressed by drought. Avoid application when temperature exceeds 90°F. Insect Killing Soap Concentrate may be used up to and including day of harvest, and is useful as a component of Integrated Pest Management "
Instructions are on the back of the bottle, you have to peel off first layer to release the instructions.

I bought these seeds to go in bundles of packets of vegetable seeds that I will put in the Blessing Box at a church here in town about late January so people who need to can supplement the groceries they buy with a garden. I'm sure they will love them. If my budget stretches that far, I will get some for myself and let you know how I like them. I still have eight bundles worth of packets of seeds to purchase for them first, though.
Appreciate that you have this in bulk quantities. We use this as a rooting hormone and as a potting mix and soil supplement. Kelp meal is rich in minerals and micro-nutrients and contains growth hormones that support healthy root growth.
Helps me keep the ants down on my property. Place outside and keeps ants down even in your house.
I grow flats of this for my pet pigs, because of the high nutritional content. They love it. I find them waiting at the growing location every afternoon waiting for their fave. I've grown beautiful flats of pea sprouts and alfalfa for them too, but they turn up their snouts and walk away.
Top notch fertilizer and great store
